Does anyone know what tethering apps are the best that don't require root that I can side load? Do they work without root?

Thanks

If you choose not to root, any tethering app you choose to use won't give you any additional functionality. So there's really no app. If you're looking to get past additional charges for tethering, then rooting is the only way to go.

This guy is wrong. I know for a fact you can activate your wifi hotspot on Gingerbread using an app called FoxFi.

Some people have reported needing both FoxFi and PDANet 3.25, but either way you'll get the wifi hotspot on your phone without rooting. The thread with info is linked below:
